SWEET REFUSAL showed nothing last season but made a sparkling handicap debut at around this trip at Limerick a fortnight ago where she chased home the favourite Todd. She could have done without a 5lb rise but looks set to go one better. Las Encinas was three lengths behind in that race and showed the value of the form when beaten a short-head at Naas on Wednesday, though that was over a mile. Seeyouallincoppers was even further behind at Limerick and looks held while Longshadow looks high in the weights for what he's achieved so far.
